Political Gossip, Satire, and Analysis from MT's Capital City "…a viral sensation…"–Markos Moulitsas, Daily Kos "Among the best state-based political blogs in the nation."–Washington Post "MT Cowgirl gets more scoops than anyone. The online voice of the left in Montana." –Billings Gazette

If Montana’s GOP congressional primary is to be a race to the right, then a winner has now emerged. Enter Drew Turiano, a TEA Party candidate who has previously campaigned for Governor and Secretary of state in Montana on the Republican ticket.

Turiano apparently believes that the ideas he espouses need no longer be confined to white supremacy websites, he wants them engraved into federal law.

On his website, Turiano writes that what Montana and America need most is to completely outlaw all immigration any kind completely. He would repeal the 1965 Immigration Act because it “was always destined to devastate the Conservative way of life in Montana and America by forcing a Third World majority upon our nation that would soon give the Communist sympathizing Bill Ayers left-wing permanent control of America.”

Turiano calls not only for an end to all legal immigration, he also wants to deport children who were born here legally and have birthright citizenship, and deny the right to vote to all legal immigrants who have ever received any government assistance.

He complains that within 20 years, the U.S. will no longer be mostly white but instead have a “Third World majority.” He worries that this country “become like South Africa in 50 years or less” and that “white America” will be “exterminated.” [screenshot]

He says that because of America’s “changing demographics” that everything we hold dear “is on the threshold to total obliteration–including everything from conservatism, to Christianity the constitution to “capitalism etc.”[Screenshots here 123456].

In Turiano’s campaign he announcement reveals that he is a birther when he tells us that conservatives “only need to look at Joe Arpaio’s report pertaining to Obama’s birth certificate” a birther screed. He’s also quick to point out that conservatism isn’t just what’s best for the real estate investment class like himself, its best for those he calls “the great unwashed.” Screenshot.

Says Turiano:

The only way Christian, traditional and Middle America can be resurrected in our country now is for us Conservatives to destroy the nation that replaced them. [Screenshot.]

He sent out a mass mailer last election cycle saying (among other crazy things) that his problem with immigration is not only with the undocumented workers and the “many murderers, rapists, and thieves in that group.” He said in the mailer that immigrants have caused “severe damage” to our “culture, customs, neighborhoods, crime rate, English language, schools, health care system and the general economic health of America.”

Turiano seems unaware, or unconcerned that, as HuffPo points out, “Many Latinos would also likely take exception to naming a deportation program “wetback,” a derogatory term used primarily to refer to Mexicans.”

He is pro-nullification, favors forced birth for rape victims and his views on education are beyond the pale: Turiano would abolish public education entirely.

Turiano apparently believes that public schools make children gay. He writes that children are “manipulated into the homosexual lifestyle by that same school system in our country that seems to promote homosexuality every day.”

He says “medical statistics show that most of them will have their bodies ravaged by venereal diseases that will end their lives prematurely” and that this children’s “souls will enter hell for an eternity – for trillions and trillions of years.” [Screenshots 1234]

He’s got so many incredible positions that his post has only just scratched the surface, so go read the rest of his views- there are enough wacky beliefs to fill many national news stories and blog posts. Not to be missed are his views on evolution [screenshot], and the argument he seems to believe proves that the earth is only 6000 years old. [screenshot]

When it comes to experience, Turiano doesn’t have much. He touts his work as a volunteer for Conrad Burns in 2006. He also openly admits he served as Communications Director for former Montana House Majority Leader Mike Lange–yes, the same Mike Lange that made national news after an angry, expletive filled tirade aimed at Governor Brian Schweitzer was captured by a television reporter. That’s not really something most people would include willingly on a resume.

Turiano lists his profession as real estate investor in Helena.

So this is the kind of frightening person inspired to run for Congress on the GOP ticket today, even though more people like this is the last thing America needs in Congress, or anywhere.Tweet

Hey, Mr. Turdiano, Fordham University called, and they said that they want you to STOP saying that you have a masters degree from their university. They asked that you please lie and say that you got it from Liberty University! True story.

How can a guy supposedly get through college and actually BELIEVE all the horse shit that he’s written here! Wanna see a what a christofascist theocrat believes in a nutshell? Well, read the following. Scary, scary stuff. And really, Pat Pukecannon is his greatest American hero? Now that’s just damn funny!

Mr. Turdiano is another of the great unwashed but washed in the blood racist assholes sent here to Montana to save humanity from the great brown hordes attacking our Homeland! He’s thirty-nine, so I guess he can be forgiven for being an idiot. He has NO idea what he’s farting about.

No. He’s probably a SLUM LORD! Hey, if’n you HAVE to have all them minoritee brown and black sub human mud people runnin’ around, you might as well RENT to them! That way, they’re contributing to the economy! I’ll lay you money that mr. turd is a slum lord!

He did not get elected to either term as president with the blessing of Middle America.

Conservatism isn’t simply a philosophy that protects the Constitution, Christianity, Western Culture, capitalism etc. in America. Conservative policies are the only viable political policies that are in the best interests of not just Conservative Americans and our families, but the great unwashed as well in our country.

Barack Obama does not represent me or traditional and Christian America.

Barack Obama represents a knife through me and traditional and Christian America”

I KNEW it! O’Bama is a darky with a KNIFE!, jus waitin’ to knife some white dude from the shadows! I HATE when that happens! Yes, Mr. Turdaino, ALL black dudes carry knives! Unless of course they have a .32 in their shoes, just like the old Jim Croce song says! But in any event, they’s ARMED! Be afraid, VERY afraid down there in Helena. Ya never know!
bwwhahahahahahahhahahahahahahaaa!

DON’T DROP THE SOAP IN UTAH! Yes, thas right, folks. Utah sheriffs are gonna get your FREEDUMB back for you by arresting gays! You see, gay people have STOLEN your freedumb! It’s NOT about Agenda 21, but about Agenda Six, Six Inches! You can’t have homos homofying in Murca! That threatens ALL of us!……..not sure how, but these morons think it does! STILL think that the Pubbies are a legitimate party? Not me!

Perfect, now all we need is about a zillion more primary candidates and Bob Kelleher will rise from the grave and win the nomination.
Seriously, tho, Turiano is an irrelevance. This is just more splatter, hoping something sticks.

Beginning to sound more and more like they are retiring the brand by leaving, I don’t even think Bonner wants to hold on to the gavel much longer either…. those guys retiring were his backbone of moderates. 2016 will be the swan song of the GOP!
